A husband and wife were driving down a country lane on their way to visit some friends.
They came to a muddy patch on the road, and the car became bogged. After a few minutes of trying to get the car out by themselves, they saw a young farmer coming down the lane, driving some oxen before him.
He stopped when he saw the couple in trouble and offered to pull the car out of the mud for $50. The husband accepted, and minutes later, the car was free.
The farmer turned to the husband and said, “You know, you’re the tenth car I’ve helped out of the mud today.”
The husband looks around the fields incredulously, and asks the farmer, “When do you have time to plough your land? At night?”
“No,” the young farmer replied, “Night is when I put water in the hole.”
There was this party in the woods and, all of a sudden, there was a downpour of rain and thunder.
These two young men ran for about 10 minutes in the rain, and finally reached their car just as the rain let up. They jumped in the car, started it up and headed down the road.
All of a sudden, an old man’s face appeared outside the passenger window, and he tapped lightly on it. The man on the passenger side screamed out,
“Eeeeeeekkk! Look at my window! There’s an old guy’s face there!”
This old man kept knocking, so the driver said, “Well, open the window a little and ask him what he wants!”
So the passenger rolled his window down and said, scared out of his wits, “What do you want?”
The old man softly replied, “Do you have any tobacco?”
The passenger, terrified, looked at the driver and said, “He wants tobacco.”
“Well, offer him a cigarette! Hurry!” the driver replies.
So the passenger fumbles around with the pack and hands the old man a cigarette.
Now going about 80 miles an hour, they calm down and start laughing, when the passenger says, “What do you think about that?”
The driver says, “I don’t know. How could that be? I was going pretty fast.”
Then all of a sudden, there is a knock, and there is the old man again.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaah, there he is again!” the passenger yells.
“Well, see what he wants now!” yells back the driver.
The passenger rolls down the window a little and shakily says, “Yes?”
“Do you have a light?” the old man quietly asks.
The passenger throws a lighter out of the window.
They are now going about 100 miles an hour, trying to forget what they had just seen and heard, when all of a sudden again, there is more knocking.
“Oh my God! He’s back!”
He rolls down the window and screams out, “What do you want now?”
The old man replies, “You want some help getting out of the mud?”
